AWESOME news! Perfect timing

Thanks bud. Can't tell you how good it is to make some hot food in here and watch this baby unfold with you all.

What's your confidence level on your final call snow map after seeing the runs/trends overnight? With the eastward trend, will heavy snow still reach out to me on the Eastern Sussex/Morris county border?

There is our secondary

Frank- do you anticipate thundersnow this afternoon?

Yes, west and NW NJ are still in line to see 12"+. Eastern PA looks to be on the cut-off now. But I am going to stick with my final call. The only change I would make is spread my dark blue of 8-12 to encompass all of NE NJ, NYC and WLI

Yes, soundings show instability. Expect thundersnow in NNJ.

Back up to 35*. Waiting for some cooling and that dry slot to disappear

12z HRRR

Snow picking up to light-moderate intensity, about 1 1/2 inches OTG, 31 degrees.It's been all snow.

Notice on the HRRR how precip turns to snow along jersey shore and parts of LI

Wow if I am under those pink radar echos could we see thunder snow here too? You wouldnt drop ur 12+ into southern WC just northern? All models showing over a foot here.

Whoever said theres no wind whatsoever yes, it wont be until the storm is close and for not nearly as long fri or anywhere near as strong but it will get gusty this afternoon and evening.

Jeeze 12z hrrr still snowing lightly here in southenr westchester at 11pm tonight! Got into some serious bands there, I just hope they let me wife out before it gets too bad. She pretty good in the snow, its mainly other drivers I am concerned about. Or getting stuck.

Well unless a miracle happens I will be lucky to see a whole 2 inches...

So Guy, we are looking at snow beginning to come down from let’s say 12 until 9 pm or so? 1-2” per hour avg. is this a safe forecast?

Was spitting some flakes earlier now nothing, I tell you it rained pretty hard, lots big pouddles this concenrs me on if and how it will stick.  Its going to take a long time to overtake all the saturated roads and ground.

Frank does your scroll SNY include my area? Something I have heard us considered south of SNY, patiently waiting to see something happen. What happened with the snownthat was supposed to fall over night, it seems most were rain.

Is this rain going to stop and drop snow to Bayville, it’s 38*

glad to hear..Mt Holly is going all in for Sussex lol

32 degrees with 2.5" so far. treated roads are fine. Side roads slushy. Looks like action is about to start picking up as wind and snow are picking up.

Heavier bands organizing to our south.

FWIW TWC now has 8-12” for the south shore of LI. 12-18” for all the rest of LI, NYC and NNJ

When will this thing start to look more organized on radar

Do the models have an agreement on Jersey Shore getting 8+? Why would Mt. Holly say 0.hahaha I trust our pros. Just looks very wet on the radar for me.
